Chop Chop Boba Shop HOURS Chop Chop Boba Shop in Aurora, Colo. sits on the corner of Peoria and Iliff, in a bustling strip mall alongside Noodles and Co. and Panera Bread. In September of last year, Ron Timm and his wife opened the beverage cafe after spending two decades in the banking industry. The couple reached out to national boba company, Lollicup, to discuss opportunities for franchising. Lollicup was happy to help, but at the time, the Lollicup name was unavailable for use. While visiting the Lollicup headquarters, they discussed other name ideas. Timm threw out “chop chop”, which was followed by “boba shop” shouted by a Lollicup employee, and the rest is history. Everyone liked the name. Although the boba shop has its own name and brand, it uses all Lollicup products and the owners also participated in Lollicup training in California. With dozens of flavors, ranging from honeydew and raspberry to avocado and taro, there is a unique flavor for everyone. And if you don’t like the gooey taste of the boba (tapioca) balls, you can still get a delicious smoothie without it! Chop Chop Boba Shop is a great location to meet friends and co-workers, and also a fun hang-out spot to spend time playing board games or foosball. Lining the walls are artwork and paintings by local artists who can sell their pieces through the shop. Timm is adding more promotional items, such as “I heart big bobas” t-shirts, and more snacks and foods to the eatery. He is also looking to open another location. But for now, Chop Chop Boba Shop continues to be a frequent spot for students and professionals who drop in to get their favorite drink and use the free wi-fi. WHAT’S YOUR FLAVOR? |
